Chapter 366 The War in the Wang
Family A new day is undoubtedly the best day for the Chao family. The old man’s birthday party was lively and lively last night, and a new population was added. The 30th is the first day of the old man’s 71st year, and it is also the first day of the little pink dumplings. On the first day after entering the Chao family tree, everything was renewed and there was great joy.
After seeing off the old and young who were going to work and school, Mr. Chao Er also went to the company. He didn't go to work yesterday and had to go to work today. Mrs. Chao Er was at home with her family.
Because it is a holiday tomorrow, Chao Er's villa is spacious. In order to facilitate everyone to get together during the holiday, the old man and the old lady also live in Chao Er's house. Chao Xingqiang and Chao Xingyun are also retired. There is no work to do, so of course they stay for a few days to play.
Chao's family was enjoying themselves happily.
Some people are happy, some are sad.
For the Chao family, a new day is beautiful, but for Wang Yuxuan and the Wang family, the arrival of the new day represents the beginning of embarrassment.
Wang Yuxuan cried until she fell asleep naturally. In the middle of the night, she woke up because she was uncomfortable on the sofa. At that time, she didn't know where she was for a long time. She stared blankly at the white light in the room and couldn't tell whether it was day or night.
My eyes were dry and hard to open, and after a long while, all my consciousness came back. I knew I was at the place where my grandparents lived, and I also remembered the Chao family dinner and the quarrel between my grandparents.
Thinking of the previously unknown secrets revealed by her grandfather in scolding her grandmother, Wang Yuxuan felt aggrieved and tears welled up in her eyes. What was wrong with asking her father to take responsibility for her mother's pregnancy?
It was quiet everywhere, except for the sound of tiny sobs.
Wang Yuxuan was aggrieved and crying. I don’t know how long it had passed, but when she heard her own sobs, she felt incomprehensible. She looked around and saw that the living room was empty. She was all alone on the sofa. She felt like she had been abandoned by the whole world. Alone and helpless.
When my heart was empty, I thought of Yan Xing inexplicably. It was a subconscious behavior. Every time I was wronged, the first thing I thought of was Yan Xing. When I was angry with Zhao Zongze, the first thing I thought of was Yan Xing. , Yan Xing will not coax her, but he always stands by her side when she is laughed at.
After staring blankly at the air for a long time, she began to cry aggrievedly, murmuring Yan Xing's nickname, "Xiao Longbao, I was wrong, wu, Xiao Longbao, I was wrong..." Tears flowed down her face
. Then, with my mind heavy again, I nestled on the sofa again and fell asleep in a daze.
She fell into a deep sleep as soon as she fell asleep. The nanny got up at 4:30 in the morning to make breakfast. The light in the living room was still on. She went to check quietly and saw the eldest lady nestled on the sofa. Then she tiptoed into the kitchen to make her own breakfast. live.
Mayor Wang has to go to work in the municipal government. He lives far away from his workplace. He leaves early and comes back late every day, so he is used to getting up early. That day was no exception. He and his wife got up at five o'clock, washed and packed, and carried their briefcase and coat. building.
Mrs. Wang is also a public servant. Because she did not like her mother-in-law in the past, she does not work as a wife at home. She still goes to work. She goes out early in the morning with her husband every day, but does not necessarily return home at the same time in the evening. She does not stay at home to avoid conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
The couple went downstairs and saw their niece leaning on the sofa. Mrs. Wang had a dull expression. Mayor Wang was unhappy when he saw his niece who had almost brought shame to the Wang family, and his expression was extremely bad.
The couple put away their briefcases, handbags, and coats and sat down on the sofa. Mrs. Wang made breakfast milk for her husband.
Wang Yuxuan's face was full of tears, and her tears washed away the makeup powder. She wiped it on a few times, making her face blurry, and her long wavy hair was messy, and her image was completely lost.
That look was so disgusting. Mayor Wang stared coldly at his sleeping niece. Wang Yuxuan was so heartbroken that she could still fall asleep despite her boyfriend making such a fuss.
Wang Yuxuan slept so hard that she didn't know what night it was. She felt a chill in her confusion. She shivered subconsciously, stretched out her arms and rubbed them a few times before she woke up.
The person was still dizzy. When he woke up, he was mumbling "嘤嘤", lying on the sofa in a sitting or lying position, staring at the air in a daze. After a while, he heard "卍卍単" There was a loud sound, and I stood up involuntarily, looking towards the source of the sound. When I saw a man coming with a cup, I sat up in surprise and said "Ah".
Because her eyes were red and swollen from crying, her vision was not very clear, and she couldn't see clearly who the person was. When she sat up and took a closer look, she found that it was her aunt, and then she looked across from her in shock. When she found her uncle staring at her with a straight face, she was frightened.
She was so stiff that she didn't dare to move, and she shouted fearfully: "Uncle, uncle, auntie."
After what happened last night, Wang Yuxuan no longer had any confidence in facing her uncle and aunt, just like a mouse facing her uncle and aunt. He was as scared as a cat, afraid to express his anger.
"Humph." Mayor Wang snorted coldly. He was too lazy to answer. He took the milk from his wife and drank it slowly.
Mrs. Wang sat down next to her husband. She didn't respond, didn't accuse him, didn't even look at him, and completely ignored him.
Mrs. Wang walked close to the living room and heard her son snort. Her heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but look at her husband who was two steps behind when he came out of the study. His wife looked very sad and did not dare to say anything.
Last night, Mrs. Wang was insulted by her husband in front of her granddaughter. She was so humiliated that she didn't sleep well all night. In addition, she was old and couldn't bear the torture. In the morning, her eyes were all blue.
Mr. Wang also didn't sleep well last night. He was confused for a while, and got up and went into the study room feeling upset. He sat there until he heard the footsteps of his son and daughter-in-law, and then came out of the study room.
When Mr. Wang saw that his wife was not moving there, he walked over to the living room with a cold expression. Mrs. Wang felt even more aggrieved and knew she was wrong, so she followed behind.
When Mayor Wang saw his parents, his cold expression did not change. He just called out "Mom, Dad." Mrs. Wang virtuously went to make breakfast milk for her father-in-law and mother-in-law.
"Grandpa...grandma, grandma." Wang Yuxuan shivered again when she saw grandpa, and stood up mechanically.
When Mr. Wang saw his granddaughter's slovenly appearance, his face became even more ugly. He scolded her with disgust: "It's embarrassing." He cursed that the place where she sat was dirty, so he angrily sat down on the single sofa.
Before her husband's anger subsided, Mrs. Wang secretly quarreled. Seeing her granddaughter's embarrassed look, she couldn't help but frown. In the end, she loved her grown-up granddaughter and didn't scold or pay attention to her, because she didn't have a place for her. She could only sit on the couch.
Being scolded by her grandfather, Wang Yuxuan's heart contracted sharply, and she almost lost her balance. No one paid attention to her. When her grandma sat down, she timidly sat down, only daring to sit upright with half of her buttocks next to the sofa.
Mrs. Wang made a glass of milk and gave it to her father-in-law and mother-in-law. She then sat next to her husband and quietly acted like an invisible person.
Mr. Wang drank half a glass of milk, barely suppressed his anger, and spoke to his eldest son: "Boss, what do you think of the wedding the day after tomorrow?"
Wang Yuxuan and Zhao Zongze are scheduled to get engaged on New Year's Day. If this happens, should the wedding continue? ?
This is a problem.
Mr. Wang was not worried about his granddaughter's happiness, but he was worried that the Chao family and the He family would blacklist the Wang family equally because of Zhao Zongze's incident. The Wang family could not withstand attacks from many parties, so they could only protect themselves by canceling the wedding.
"Dad, I'd better ask Mom about this," Mayor Wang hesitated and put the question aside: "At the beginning, everything was decided by Mom. The date was agreed upon by Mom and the Zhao family, and the list of invitations was also drawn up by Mom for me to send. Yes, now it is still up to mom to decide what to do."
"..." Old Mrs. Wang opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She was the first to agree to the matter between Xiaoxuan and Zhao Zongze, and it was she who persuaded her son to agree. It was still her decision to choose the date and wedding hotel, and it was she who proposed to the Zhao family what kind of wedding they wanted.
But now if the problem is thrown back to her, she... what can she do?
Mrs. Wang felt as if a plum had stuck in her throat and was speechless.
Mr. Wang looked at his wife with an unkind look. Isn't this old fool still wanting to protect something that is embarrassing?
Mrs. Wang was frightened for a while when she was looked at coldly by her husband. When she saw her husband's eyes were not kind, her heart beat rapidly. She knew her husband's temper. Once she got angry, she would not recognize her relatives.
She looked at her granddaughter with red and swollen eyes, and swallowed hard: "Yuxuan, how about we examine Zhao Zongze's character issues again, and postpone the engagement ceremony later." The wedding banquet that the Wang family and Zhao family agreed to hold on New Year's Day was not a real wedding banquet
. A wedding banquet is a formal engagement. In a family like theirs, once their children get engaged, it is not much different from getting married. Therefore, the person who receives the invitation eats an engagement banquet and a wedding banquet.
Moreover, a grand engagement ceremony is held, and men and women are equivalent to a formal marriage. They don't want to have wine when they get married, and they can live at home after getting the certificate. Those who like to have a fuss can also hold a grand wedding banquet.
"I listen to grandma." Wang Yuxuan waited nervously for the result. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her grandma say that the engagement ceremony would be postponed. Grandma still loved her and didn't want her to be unhappy in her marriage, so she was not afraid of being talked about behind her back. Be willing to cancel the engagement party at short notice.
Mrs. Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Yuxuan did not resist strongly, which meant that she was dissatisfied with what Zhao Zongze did. In this way, even if the two broke up after canceling the engagement party, they would not resent her and blame her for breaking them up.
In the past, even if Zhao Zongze was not as good as Yan Xing in all aspects, fortunately, the Zhao family was a wealthy family, and her granddaughter would be a ready-made rich wife when she married. In addition, with the backing of her natal family, Yuxuan would definitely be able to be like a fish in water in the Zhao family. She only needs to be a husband and wife. Just be a rich lady.
Now, Zhao Zongze has offended the Chao family, offended the adopted granddaughter of the Chao family, and offended the young doctor who saved Mrs. He. The entire noble circle will look for opportunities to step on Zhao Zongze at any time in order to establish friendship with the Chao family. No one in the huge wealthy family in the capital will There is no telling which family will add insult to injury. Zhao Zongze is surrounded by enemies on all sides. The Wang family is also married to the Zhao family. The powerful people who have been at odds with the Wang family have the opportunity to target the Wang family. At this juncture, marrying the Zhao family is tantamount to attracting enemies for the Wang family. .
Mrs. Wang feels sorry for her granddaughter, but she cares more about her own status. If she cancels the engagement party, she will be criticized behind her back. I also gave him some thin noodles and didn't make trouble in front of the little doctor.
She was just glad that her granddaughter cooperated with her decision and did not make any fuss, but she heard her husband's cold tone reaching her ears: "Since it is all your decision, how do you tell the guests invited by the Wang family to cancel the engagement?" I think you know a lot about it and know how to explain it to others."
"I..." Old Mrs. Wang felt cold and asked her to personally explain to the guests that her granddaughter's engagement was canceled at the last minute. She... how did she start? Got that mouth?
Her wife asked her to inform the guests that the Wang family's granddaughter's engagement was canceled for some reason. The purpose was to save the eldest son's face. If the eldest son explained it to the guests in person, it would damage his image. If they were the grandparents to explain, This will keep the eldest son out of the situation.
She knew that was the best choice. However, she had spent most of her life listening to flattery. How could she have the shame to do such a shameful thing? Especially not just one or two families, but dozens of families, all of them from wealthy or powerful families.
At this moment, she felt helpless for the first time. Two months ago, she was happily planning the engagement and thinking about who to invite to make faces, but now she had to rack her brains to figure out how to end it. This is what people say about extreme happiness leading to sadness. .
Mrs. Wang resisted. She turned her attention to the eldest daughter-in-law: "I am old, my memory is not good, and my friendship with the ladies in the capital is average. It is the eldest daughter-in-law who..." "Shut up!
" Mr. Wang was so angry that he suddenly changed color. His anger could not go away. He smashed the milk cup in his hand towards his wife: "All good things come from you. When it's your turn to deal with the consequences, you think of the boss's wife? Are you embarrassed to be this mother-in-law? You touch it." Touch your heart, don't you feel guilty?"
There was still half a glass of milk in the cup he smashed out. The milk hit the cup with a bang and hit Mrs. Wang on the shoulder. The milk splashed on her face and body. , the cup rolled down, fell to the ground, and shattered.
Mayor Wang did not expect his old father to be so angry, and was also shocked: "Dad-"
Mrs. Wang was frightened and jumped up. Wang Yuxuan watched the cup fly towards grandma, and watched her grandma being splashed. Yi Yi, when he heard the sound of the cup breaking, his body shook, and instantly became stiff as iron, his eyes full of panic.
Mrs. Wang's brain was buzzing when her husband said "Shut up". When she saw a cup flying towards her, it was too late to hide. She subconsciously tried to turn aside to avoid it, but she still didn't survive and was hit squarely. .
She could bear being scolded, but when milk was splashed on her face, she was completely stunned. She looked at her husband sadly. In the past few decades, he had never treated her like this. Even if they quarreled about their youngest son, they always carried him behind his back. As for his daughters-in-law, he still cares about her face and will not embarrass her too much.
When he was young, he did not make her stand down. When she was about to be buried, he shamed her in front of his son, daughter-in-law, or the eldest daughter-in-law whom he despised. How could she save her face?
Old Mrs. Wang even forgot to wipe the milk on her face. Looking at her husband, she was trembling all over, her heart was sore, her eyeballs rolled out of her sockets, but her teeth were clenched. She did not roar or cry hysterically. , just trembling and crying.
"Boss, you and your wife should go to work. Don't worry about your mother. She has had her own way over the years. She and the granddaughter she protects should bear the consequences themselves." Mr. Wang was still furious and looked at the girl
. The old man and the young man were angry and felt it was an eyesore. They said to the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, and then turned to look at the useless granddaughter: "And you, Wang Yuxuan, go and wash your face. It's dirty and ugly. I want to Do I have to give in if I'm so angry?"
"Ugh... um." Wang Yuxuan was so frightened by the roar that she started to cry. She just cried and bit her lip, climbed up and rushed upstairs to wash her face.
The old father asked himself to avoid it, but Mayor Wang didn't say anything. He took his wife, briefcase and clothes away from the war at home.
Mrs. Wang was very grateful for her father-in-law's protection. Her mother-in-law didn't like her, but her father-in-law was a sensible person and did not dislike her. She also respected her father-in-law very much. When she left, she bowed to him before leaving the house, closed the door, and drove to the house with her husband. Eat breakfast outside.
Her son and daughter-in-law were gone, and her granddaughter was also kicked away. With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Wang went to find a broom and a bucket, swept up the broken cups and put them in the trash can, and sat aside to wipe her tears.
The old man was so angry that she didn't dare to stroke the tiger's beard anymore. No matter how great the grievance was, she would only bear it. Besides, the eldest son was taught by the old man and listened to the old man's words. If she questioned the old man again or asked the eldest daughter-in-law to deal with the aftermath, In the future, her son will also be prejudiced against her, and she will have no status in the family.
She wiped away her tears sadly, went to the bathroom to wash her face, and calmly acted like a housewife and old lady, so as not to make her wife angry again.
Wang Yuxuan was frightened and rushed back to her room on the second floor. She hurriedly washed her face. When she looked in the mirror, she found that she almost fell over. She hurriedly washed off her makeup, fixed her hair, and changed into home clothes, enduring the panic. Feeling of panic, go downstairs.
Grandma couldn't protect herself. She didn't dare to challenge her grandpa, let alone lose her temper. If she hid and refused to go downstairs, grandpa would only dislike her even more, and he might kick her out and not allow her to come back in the future.
Now, she needs her uncle's identity cover. Even if her grandfather hates her and scolds her, she will still hold her grandma's thigh as a protective umbrella.
He walked downstairs and sat obediently.
She tidied it up, and Mr. Wang found it more pleasing to the eye, so she didn't add eggs or chicken bones. She waited for the nanny to make breakfast and went to the restaurant to have breakfast.
Mrs. Wang, Wang Yuxuan and her grandson also went to have breakfast without saying a word, and they couldn't taste anything. They were just chewing wax and filling their stomachs indiscriminately.
After breakfast, Mr. Wang ignored his wife and granddaughter and read the newspaper by himself.
Mrs. Wang was thinking about how to explain to the guests who had sent the invitation. Her face was green and white. Wang Yuxuan did not dare to disturb her. She was so depressed that she did not dare to go out. She stayed there as if in a prison.
Wang Qianjin stayed beside her grandparents in fear, while Jia Ling almost collapsed. She collapsed on the bed after receiving a call from her grandson yesterday. She thought of Yan Ming's dead first wife for a while, and Yan Xing's mother for a while. Yan Feixia suddenly remembered what happened to Yan Xing when she was a child. She was overwhelmed by fear and couldn't close her eyes all night.
She had no sleep all night, and her eyes were bloodshot in the morning. She was worried that her affair would be exposed, and she was in a state of panic all day long. She didn't go downstairs until after dawn, just before breakfast time. Fortunately, Yan Ming regarded her as dispensable and didn't care what happened to her eyes. Red and swollen, she could barely keep calm.
After a tough breakfast, she went back upstairs and wanted to call quietly to check on her grandson. She found that her grandson's phone was turned off, and her granddaughter's phone was also turned off, and she became even more panicked.
She rarely goes to the circles of powerful people, and she doesn't know where to find out what happened last night. She can only wait anxiously for news about her grandson.
